Mobile Ed: NT255 The Identity of Jesus (2 hour course - audio)

, 2019

The most important question a person can ask is, “Who is Jesus?” In this course, Dr. Michael Bird evaluates the testimony of each of the Gospel writers and the apostle Paul to discover who the New Testament authors believed Jesus to be. He also considers the testimony of Jesus himself to see how he understood his own identity. You will have the opportunity to look at Jesus through historical, religious, and personal lenses as you reflect on your own response to Jesus’s question, “Who do you say that I am?”
